Retro robots and dinosaur fabric plush toys

My latest soft toys are finally sewn and I can't be happier with the results:) It takes a lot of time from uploading the design to Spoonflower till receiving the actual fabric, sewing and photographing it. But I love all the process stages (except the long shipping time). However, the moment that fills my heart with joy is when the toy is all finished and when I ask my kids for the opinion and ask them to choose some for themselves.





These robots are quite big, like 40 cm (16") tall and can be also cushions. I have managed to list some in my etsy shop and can't wait to make some more. And there are some Dino toys as well, all settled down already;)
They are created with my original watercolor artwork (that are available as variety of fabrics too) and have very nice, hand drawn texture.









Have a wonderful weekend,

More plushies!!!

Just like with the dolls, I am all addicted to dolls and plushies and have been really enjoying making them lately. Ice cream set is available for sale on Etsy.

 



As I made quite a few of these lately, this upcoming exhibition will come quite handy to have them all exposed (you are all invited, of course:).
























Another great thing about these SF fabric templates is that (as they are so precious to me), I will use every possible inch of it and so I will actually make some scrappy quilt out of the little leftovers.



Feels really great to have someone helping and thinking about the kitchen and real food while I am making the play food:)


Have a wonderful weekend,

Dolls, dolls, dolls

After creating some fun softie toys and dolls in fabric, my kids and I realized that we can have more fun with toys and fabric. So, I designed some new dolls, just for the start. I firstly wanted to be sure that they can be assembled easily enough to go further with playing with some clothes styles, hair styles and even faces types , colours and styles. It is a lot of work, but it is a lot of fun too.



Here are some first steps...trying some shapes and deciding the best...





the fabric panel....



...and finally the dolls





I can hardly wait to create some dino and robot soft toys for my son and other boys too, the time is never enough....
